a children's park is 350 m long and 200 m wide. it is surrounded by a pathway of uniform width. suppose the total area of the park and the pathway is 74,464 m^2. how wide is the pathway?


Sagot :

imagine the children's park as an ordinary rectangle.

let p be the width of the pathway:

(350+2p)(200+2p) = 74 464

that's the working equation. just solve for p ;)
